| abstract | - Leon Zuidema owns Leons Tailoring on 23rd near 8th in New York, a tailor shop he inherited from the late Leo Zelensky. He runs the shop with two elderly Korean women. Although he does mend and repair clothing of a more mundane nature Leons Tailoring has made its mark as the premier shop for supers. Originally under the name Leos Tailoring, the shop designed the costumes of the X-Men and Spider-Man along with having the honor of mending Captain America's suit. The current shop receives advanced synthetic fabrics, such ad those used by SHIELD, which breathes like skin, absorbs body chemicals, and acts like your own personal thermostat, all in the stereotypical spandex pattern. The shop will however make looser fitting orders and other costumes for supers. Villains traditionally also used the shop. As such Leon kept the policy of serving heroes and villains on alternating days - heroes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and villains on Saturdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. He even alternates his magazine rack - newspapers, Newsweek and Time for the heroes, Penthouse and Guns and Ammo for the villains.
